Since Christmas we have had three people leave work and seven (one has left since, well not left, more got rid of) new people start. I have no problem with new people, they do great things for a company and make it lively and new. New people are great. The bit I don’t like is the constant questions. I have had to train four out of those seven people in how to prepare financial statements. WHAT?! I know, they’re all more qualified than me.
It doesn’t bother me too much, just the fact that my work starts to lagg behind and I end accomplishing very little in a day.
I used to think I wanted to be a teacher… hmm maybe not!

I was doing well today churning accounts out like a mincing machine, when I get asked by my boss to go through a set of accounts with the new lady who started today. AHH DAMNIT!

So I helped her for three and a half hours, damn good on my part.

Then when I sat back down at my desk I noticed I had her uncomfortable chair. And she was sitting in my nice three year old bum groove. So I went over to ask her if we could switch our chairs. I felt a bit mean, but naah, stuff it, I can’t sit on an uncomfortable chair, even if I am only a part timer and she’s here 40 hours a week.

I’m just happy I am part time, can’t get asked questions when I’m not there!
